Patent attributes
An adjustable shelf system for food equipment includes at least two front brackets, each having a base and a support member extending from the base. The support member has an outer edge and a series of vertically spaced notches. The front brackets are mounted such that the notched support surfaces extend substantially toward each other in a direction generally parallel with a vertical plane that intersects both of the front brackets. A shelf is supported by the front brackets, with extensions extending outwardly from the sides of the shelf. The front of the shelf can be lifted, allowing the shelf to be moved laterally to a position in which the back of the shelf is no longer supported by back support surfaces and the extensions are clear of the notches in the front brackets, thereby allowing the shelf to be moved vertically to a different height while being held horizontal.
